TOPIC: Lessons From The Life Of Hannah (I) (Mountain Of Fire and Miracle Ministries, MFM Devotional 25 March 2022)

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Numbers 19, Numbers 20, Numbers 21:1-3, Luke 5:33-39, Luke 6:1-11, Proverbs 8:1-21

FIRE SCRIPTURE: 1 Samuel 1:1-20 (KJV)

1 Now there was a certain man of Ramathaimzophim, of mount Ephraim, and his name was Elkanah, the son of Jeroham, the son of Elihu, the son of Tohu, the son of Zuph, an Ephrathite:

2 And he had two wives; the name of the one was Hannah, and the name of the other Peninnah: and Peninnah had children, but Hannah had no children.

3 And this man went up out of his city yearly to worship and to sacrifice unto the Lord of hosts in Shiloh. And the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, the priests of the Lord, were there.

4 And when the time was that Elkanah offered, he gave to Peninnah his wife, and to all her sons and her daughters, portions:

5 But unto Hannah he gave a worthy portion; for he loved Hannah: but the Lord had shut up her womb.

6 And her adversary also provoked her sore, for to make her fret, because the Lord had shut up her womb.

7 And as he did so year by year, when she went up to the house of the Lord, so she provoked her; therefore she wept, and did not eat.

8 Then said Elkanah her husband to her, Hannah, why weepest thou? and why eatest thou not? and why is thy heart grieved? am not I better to thee than ten sons?

9 So Hannah rose up after they had eaten in Shiloh, and after they had drunk. Now Eli the priest sat upon a seat by a post of the temple of the Lord.

10 And she was in bitterness of soul, and prayed unto the Lord, and wept sore.

11 And she vowed a vow, and said, O Lord of hosts, if thou wilt indeed look on the affliction of thine handmaid, and remember me, and not forget thine handmaid, but wilt give unto thine handmaid a man child, then I will give him unto the Lord all the days of his life, and there shall no razor come upon his head.

12 And it came to pass, as she continued praying before the Lord, that Eli marked her mouth.

13 Now Hannah, she spake in her heart; only her lips moved, but her voice was not heard: therefore Eli thought she had been drunken.

14 And Eli said unto her, How long wilt thou be drunken? put away thy wine from thee.

15 And Hannah answered and said, No, my lord, I am a woman of a sorrowful spirit: I have drunk neither wine nor strong drink, but have poured out my soul before the Lord.

16 Count not thine handmaid for a daughter of Belial: for out of the abundance of my complaint and grief have I spoken hitherto.

17 Then Eli answered and said, Go in peace: and the God of Israel grant thee thy petition that thou hast asked of him.

18 And she said, Let thine handmaid find grace in thy sight. So the woman went her way, and did eat, and her countenance was no more sad.

19 And they rose up in the morning early, and worshipped before the Lord, and returned, and came to their house to Ramah: and Elkanah knew Hannah his wife; and the Lord remembered her.

20 Wherefore it came to pass, when the time was come about after Hannah had conceived, that she bare a son, and called his name Samuel, saying, Because I have asked him of the Lord.

MFM Devotional 25 March 2022 Message:

The Bible is filled with illustrious male and female characters whose words and deeds qualify them as role models or worthy examples of believers for our generation. One of such characters is Hannah. Though an Old Testament personality, Hannah remains exemplary in faith, prayer and godly virtues till today. Let us examine some important lessons we need to learn from her.

Hannah was a Hebrew woman who was connected to God by covenant. She was a believer and a worshipper. The Bible affirms her yearly trip to Shiloh in company of her husband, Elkanah. She had relationship with the most high God and was a Kingdom seeker. Beloved, whether you win or lose, succeed or fail in life depends on where you stand with God. Is God your Father, or are you His enemy? Hannah was rightly positioned with God.

Hannah had a challenge: she was barren. To worsen her situation, her fruitful senior wife, Peninah, was always taunting and mocking her. This made her very sad. In the midst of these insults and mockery hurled at her by Peninah, Hannah did not quarrel with her, rather as a woman of peace, she kept trusting God. Also, her husband kept reassuring her of his love. Beloved, I decree that all those who are mocking you and asking where is your God will see your turnaround miracles and celebrate with you very soon, in Jesus’ name.

Hannah was a woman of faith. In spite of her challenge, she did not seek help from man. In her steadfast and unwavering faith, she stayed in God, trusting Him for His mercy and intervention. Unlike some believers who visit ungodly places in the name of looking for solution to their problems, Hannah did not allow the enemy to deceive her. She decided to cling to God with an uncompromising faith, believing that He could do all things. God did not fail her Beloved, faith in God wins. Stay in faith! Hannah did and she received answer to her prayers. You shall experience the same, in Jesus’ name.
